The North East Weak Signal [N.E.W.S.] Group was established to form a comradery amongst fellow VHF-UHF-SHF enthusiasts, and support a convenient means to exchange technical information
We are an ARRL affiliated regional club dedicated to the interests of "weak signal" work on the bands 50 MHz - Light. With over 100 members, we have a lot of technical expertise within our club which can help with about any question or problem conceivable on VHF and up.
Meetings are held six times each year: Four meetings are held at the Richard Salter Storrs Library, in Longmeadow, MA on a Saturday from 1:00 - 3:45 PM and will feature either
a noted speaker or a ‘Show & Tell’ presentation on a VHF-SHF related topic. A meeting is also held at the April NEWS Group sponsored Eastern VHF/UHF/Microwave Conference and there is a brief meeting
at the annual July NEWS Group picnic. Our ”N.E.W.S. LETTER“ is mailed about 2 to 3 weeks prior to our meetings.
